The Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS), which is on cloud nine following the victory of all the five MLC candidates, launched a scathing attack on Telugu Desam Party supremo and AP Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu for pressing party MLA Revanth Reddy to offer huge amount to the nominated MLA, Elvis Stephenson to favour TDP in MLC elections.
Hyderabad: The Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS), which is on cloud nine following the victory of all the five MLC candidates, launched a scathing attack on Telugu Desam Party supremo and AP Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu for pressing party MLA Revanth Reddy to offer huge amount to the nominated MLA, Elvis Stephenson to favour TDP in MLC elections.
Finance Minister Eatala Rajender demanded that legal action be initiated against Revanth Reddy for hatching a conspiracy. Addressing the media along with Energy Minister G Jagadish Reddy at Secretariat on Monday, Rajender said Revanth Reddy should be disqualified from the Assembly for his arrest by ACB sleuths while offering Rs 50 lakhs to Elvis Stephenson.
With Revanth’s arrest, it was proved that the Telugu Desam was a brokers’ party and its chief was orchestrating ‘dirty politics’ in Telangana, using corrupt money from Andhra Pradesh. Eatala alleged that the Telugu Desam party was known for selling political posts and it was already exposed that Naidu did so by taking Rs 30 crore from Sujana Chowdhary and C M Ramesh.
The people of both Telugu States are keenly watching the nefarious activities of Chandrababu Naidu, he charged. The Finance Minister also sought a thorough investigation into the entire episode in which Chandrababu Naidu reportedly spoken with the nominated MLA, Stephenson.
Rajender also accused Naidu of getting envious as KCR Government for making rapid strides in all sectors, he said. Telangana leaders will not keep quiet if Naidu failed to mend his ways, he warned.
